S.O.N.I.A, an acronym for Système d’Opération Nautique Intelligent et Autonome is a scientific club from École de Technologie Supérieure located in Montreal, Québec.

Established in 1999, team S.O.N.I.A has since designed and engineered 8 Autonomous Underwater Vehicles. The club consists of students from Mechanical, Electrical and Software programs whose goal is to compete each year at the annual Robosub event held in San Diego, California.

Moreover, S.O.N.I.A is an undergraduate student association and as such, we believe in harmonious team work and that knowledge is best acquired through hands-on experience. Our goal is to offer an educational environment for everyone whose desire is to learn and we strongly believe in the advancement of robotics. Hence, all of our work is an open source on Github.

24 Juin Le compte à rebours est lancé. Dans 1 mois, S.O.N.I.A. AUV ira représenter l'École de Technologie supérieure à San Diego pour la compétition ROBOSUB. Voilà maintenant 1 an l'idée de construire un nouveau sous-marin a germé dans la tête des étudiants du club. Pendant un an, toute l'équipe s'est investie à 127 % pour réaliser ce magnifique sous-marin. Il reste encore beaucoup de travail dans le prochain mois, mais l'équipe garde sa vitesse de croisière en vue de l'objectif ultime, gagner ROBOSUB. SONIA aimerait remercier toutes les personnes qui ont participé de près ou de loin à cette réalisation. Sans l'implication des étudiants et l'aide de nos commanditaires, nous n'aurions pas pus accomplir ce projet. June 24th It's the final countdown In a month, S.O.N.I.A. AUV will represent l'École de Technologie Supérieure at ROBOSUB competition in San Diego. One year ago, students from SONIA AUV started to think about building a brand new sub. During this year, all the team put 110 % of effort to realize this magnificent submarine. We still have a lot of work , but the team keeps its cruising speed to complete is main goal, to win ROBOSUB. SONIA would like to thank all the people who participated closely or remotely in this realization. Without the implication of the students and the help of our sponsors, we would have no pus to carry out this project.@etsmtl @ROBOSUB @robotnationSuivez nous sur facebookhttp://sonia.etsmtl.ca/credit musique : My Game - Deluxe Land of the rising sun - Royal Audio Tunes
